To show what happens in the first half of his day, the British Nigerian bodybuilder, Yinka Majolagbe, who goes by the nickname, \u201cMajonmuscle,\u201d recently shared his morning routine online.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Majonmuscle is readying for the 212-division final at the 2026 Olympia in Las Vegas, <a href=\"https:\/\/contests.npcnewsonline.com\/contests\/2025\/ifbb_evls_prague_pro\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">after qualifying at the IFBB EVLS Prague Pro,<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0so there\u2019s not a moment to waste.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>What is Yinka Majolagbe\u2019s Morning Routine?<\/h2>\n<p>Yinka Majolagbe starts his day with electrolytes and a multivitamin, followed by a fasted cardio session on the StairMaster. He also performs ab work, calf raises, posing practice, and progress check-ins before eating a high-protein breakfast consisting of rice pudding, whey protein, eggs, and raspberries.<\/p>\n<h3>Electrolytes<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first thing that Majolagbe consumes in the mornings is not protein, but rather a dose of electrolytes and a multi-vitamin. \u201cThat is just to hydrate myself and get all my vitamins in,\u201d explains Majonmuscle, who wants to start the day right and avoid cramping.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Fasted Cardio Workout<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There\u2019s no grunting through heavy barbells to be heard during Majolagbe\u2019s morning routine, as he makes a stop at his local gym for the purpose of making a fasted cardio session. \u201cI usually walk to the gym,\u201d adds the 212 competitor who is representing the U.K.,<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0eager to get as many steps in as he can.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Majolagbe\u2019s fasted cardio session includes 30 minutes on the StairMaster. \u201cMaybe even 40 depending on what Nathan says,\u201d explains the Olympia contender, noting that he always <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/nathan_smart_01\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">follows his coach Nathan Smart\u2019s<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0advice.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While in the gym, the bodybuilder also makes use of the space with some ab work, and even some calf raises to further stimulate the muscle\u2019s that were taxed on the StairMaster.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Raspberries after reps<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Majonmuscle makes a short stop on his walk home from the gym to pick up some raspberries to snack on after his reps. \u201cThey\u2019re one of my favorites,\u201d he says of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.muscleandfitness.com\/nutrition\/gain-mass\/best-bodybuilding-fruits-every-part-your-day\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">super-efficient fruit<\/a> that boasts a wealth of nutrients such as vitamins C, K, and E, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, and even fiber for digestion. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Posing &amp; Progress Evaluation<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Arriving back at home, the Vegas-bound bodybuilder gets in front of the camera to practice his posing. Majonmuscle also sends images to his coach to that together, they can set the standard for the days ahead. \u201cIf it\u2019s a Friday, I would send a check-in to Nathan, and he will let me know what to do for the week (ahead),\u201d explains\u00a0 Majolagbe.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>What Does Yinka Majolagbe Eat for Breakfast?<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With his morning workout and posing already ticked off, Majonmuscle refuels with a breakfast containing 150 grams of rice pudding mix. He then adds 30 grams of whey protein and had 3 eggs on the side, to create a clean meal that packs a substantial amount of carbs, proteins, and healthy fats. The big man then adds a sweet flavoring to his rice pudding such as carrot cake. \u201cAbsolutely delicious guys,\u201d he confirms of the concoction. Majonmuscle throws his remaining raspberries\u00a0 into the rice pudding bowl and proceeds to demolish his breakfast. \u201cAnd that is the routine guys,\u201d concludes\u00a0 Majolagbe.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fasted cardio is preferred by many bodybuilders because it is a great way to kickstart fat loss without burning energy that has already been consumed in the mornings. But Majolagbe\u2019s routine also shows that winning trophies on the bodybuilding stage takes more than an intense approach to pumping iron, with hydration and nutrients also being essential to the muscle building mix.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>The proof will be in the (rice) pudding when Majonmuscle has a chance to put his routine to the test on the 212 Olympia stage in Las Vegas on Sept. 24 to 27, 2026.
